Maintenance and repair
Advanced technology, e.g. the use of modern
materials and powerful electronics, requires specially adapted maintenance and repair
methods. You should therefore have the corresponding work on your vehicle performed
only by your BMW center or at a workshop that works according to BMW repair procedures
with correspondingly trained personnel. If this work is not carried out properly,
there is a danger of subsequent damage and related safety hazards.
